Talking Sopranos #65 w/Peter Bogdanovich and Marianne Leone (Joanne Moltisanti) “Long Term Parking“

This week on Talking Sopranos Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa welcome Oscar nominated director Peter Bogdanovich (Dr Elliot Kupferberg) and Marianne Leone (Joanne Moltisanti) to the podcast. It’s another fantastic episode with two amazing guests. First up, the legendary Peter Bogdanovich talks about how he started out as an actor in NYC and what gave him the bug to take up directing. He shares stories about his friendship with Orson Wells, how he cast Tatum O’Neil in the Last Picture Show and of course how he ended up on the Sopranos. Peter became friends with David Chase who asked him to play the role of Melfi’s psychiatrist. He also directed Michael and Steve in “Sentimental Education“ S5-Ep6 of the Sopranos. Next Marianne Leone joins the podcast. Michael worked with Marianne on Goodfellas and the two remained friends ever since. She is a lot of fun and shares some great stories about her days on the Sopranos and how Federico Castelluccio restored a painting of her grandparents. Then
